Quote from: Splash on March 19, 2024, 12:57:31 AMhow did they decide that Down have to play their semi final against Laois in Portlaoise? Seen the division 1 semi finals are at neutral venues.Quote from: Sandstorm on March 17, 2024, 10:08:04 AMI am not big into hurling but love Splash's posts. Very informative and no resorting to abusing anyone.
Great to see the hurlers making the league semi finals. Let's have an update on yesterday's game Splash and keep up the good work.Quote from: ardtole on March 17, 2024, 11:48:52 AMSplash has certainly been a welcome addition to the Down forum. I enjoy the coverage of the ihc and jhc during the summer, games you would generally hear little about. It's encouraging to hear of progress at underage particularly at clubs like Castlewellan and CPN, where you would associate them more as football clubs.
Appreciate it. Just trying to keep as much hurling discussion going as possible. We all want the best for Down, Sandstorm, no call to resort to bickering or insulting anyone, and glad you find the talk about the junior and intermediate interesting, Ardtole.
Glad yous are enjoying the bit of hurling discussion going on, lately.
Anyway, a great day out for the hurlers on Saturday. A 9 point win on such a miserable day. Not bad at all.
Daithà Sands was unreal, scoring 3-3 from play.
That relegates Meath and sends us into a league semi final. 70 minutes away from being back in Division One. Will now face Laois next week, in Laois.
Will be a very tough game. Down gave Laois a scare in the first round, and they'll not be expecting an easy game, and Laois will feel as though they're well fit to compete with Antrim, Westmeath, and Offaly next year. But Down have been going very good this season. Undefeated at home, and biggest loss was only 7 points after a late goal and some last minute frees by Laois in the first round.
Couple injuries and Eoghan Sands likely to miss the game after getting sent off the other day, but there's a good depth to this Down squad, so let's be hopeful.
Would be great to see Down in the Division One, and they've shown they're well fit to compete with the likes of Antrim, Westmeath, Offaly, etc.
Let's hope the momentum keeps going until Saturday.
Quote from: bannside on March 04, 2024, 05:36:40 PMDepends what way you look at it Sheedy. Sligo beat us (Antrim) handily, but we were very competitive against both Offaly and Westmeath!yeah probably shows the inconsistencies in a lot of the teams. Was surprised Sligo put up such a big score against Antrim, then they were poor against Down.
Quote from: trailer on February 26, 2024, 04:31:53 PMwould be a good idea to read into it before typing nonsense.Quote from: lurganblue on February 26, 2024, 01:48:26 PMThe Premier League dont seem to have a scooby doo on how to enforce these rules/sanctions.
It's independent.
6 points is still a fair wallop. Everton can have no complaints and I have little sympathy for them. They knew they were going to have a breech of FFP, told the PL that and then after the PL told them how to avoid it they continued to buy players. They took a short term view in order to keep their PL status. Essentially cheating. It has worked for them as they'll swallow this punishment, and most likely stay in the PL.
